- threeseed 5y agoExcept that it is exactly what people have been asking for: Simple reverse chronological order feed with no ranking.
- jaywalk 5y agoDid you even read the comment I replied to? BS like "we're throwing this post in your feed because one of your friends liked/commented on it" is not part of what people have been asking for, but that was still part of their "no algorithm" test. All they did was get rid of the ranking, but that's only part of the issue.
- sokoloff 5y agoI am some non-zero amount interested that a Facebook friend of mine liked or commented on some random post. I’m not as interested as something that they posted originally, but clearly non-zero interested in many of those.
- jaywalk 5y agoThat's perfectly fine. Me personally, I am not at all interested in it. But Facebook could very easily allow us to tailor our individual Newsfeeds to our liking, so you can have what you want and I can have what I want. But that's not what Facebook wants, so that's not what we get.
